Wizards at Suns (Jan 24) highlights

If we play anything like our last four games, I expect a very long night for Wiz fans.

We gon' get raped.

unless there is a lineup change, wake me up when its playoff time

I don't feel good about this one. We don't match up well with uber-quick scoring PG's. Phoenix has two of them.

Bledsoe and Dragic = the SLASH BROTHERS

Yeah I'ma jump on the "Gooden should start" bandwagon even though Gooden defends about as well as traffic cone. I'd rather have him out there at least trying to match Frye point for point than Booker just looking dazed.

Is Booker injured and not playing ?

If not, Gooden is not starting.

We are talking about Randy here. Randy doesn't do no stinking adjustments. We are lucky if he calls a TO.

When randy puts in the Gooden Harrington frontcourt I pray to baby Jesus Bledsoe or dragic is out of the game

Harrington is so awful, when the season started I didn't think he could be quite that bad.

Oh get this season over with so I can watch 4 quick playoff games and be done with it.

Wall better win his matchup if we have any hope of winning.

Phx fan here I remember the last time we played you guys very clearly .

You guys busted out some zone on us and we had so many turnovers leading to fastbreaks.
I know we will see it again until we prove we can beat it.
Bledsoe was hurt so I hope that's the difference this time around.


Good luck

nate - did you have us down for winning this one?

I think this is another home L for us.

We are barely holding onto the 6 seed now...

Expect another loss. Wittman needs to make changes to his lineups.

PHX reloaded faster then the Wizards perpetual rebuild, and it was done w/o loading up on aging players on the decline.

And they didn't need to be in the lottery five straight years to do it.

Plus, their rookie HC is way better than anything the Wizards will ever have at Head Coach in our lifetimes.

Going to the game tonight. I hope the Wall - Dragic matchup will be entertaining enough to distract from the fact that the rest of the team is hot garbage.

Honestly, we haven't really played well in the last 8 or so game starting with our 4th quarter disappearance in MIA. We got beat pretty handily by the Bobcats at home the next game, dodged a bullet with some last minute heroics in Orlando, did much of the same at home in the 4th quarter versus NJ, blew the Sacramento game, played like a JV team in the last two and a half quarters at Portland, almost blew another lead in LA, and blew a 14 point lead against Denver with lackadaisical and sloppy play. Our 3 wins haven't been inspiring and our losses range from pathetic to head scratching to down right infuriating.

This team is schizophrenic to the 10th degree, so based on how poorly they've played, they'll blowout PHX or maybe it'll be just the opposite, you just never know with this team. I attribute this to a combination of things such as getting too high on ourselves, Wittman's lack of holding players accountable and playing favorites, and our young backcourt's learning curve in terms of playing winning ball.

If the Wiz had Jeff Hornacek, they'd win 50 games.
